Due to the workload required of me at university, I have to sell all of my projects. The Jeepra is $4500. All the work has been highly documented and can be viewed on the
forum and on my Facebook albums. I have been dailying the vehicle in its current form now for several months, but with emissions systems currently apart and inspection/registration run out, I can no longer drive her on the street legally.
Further details are listed below. Contact me privately with any serious inquiries.
From the onset of the project a super-clean result was always paramount. 1 year of research alone went into the transmission configuration. The level of detail is evident in things like the gauge cluster that was sourced from a diesel XJ in Romania so an OEM boost gauge could be installed. There are many extra components, including a hood, front right fender, and bucket seats.
1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ. Runs and drives well, but is still requiring a shifter modified and installed to ease shifting and all OBDII codes handled to make emissions legal. She will also require a small lift (min 2”) with appropriate bump stops and a new exhaust put on in order for her to reach significant boost levels. There is some additional heat management that needs to be done and an oil pan repair/replacement (small and slow drip) now that she has been driving for awhile. Should get an aftermarket transmission oil cooler installed. The rear axle angle needs to be shimmed.
2JZ-GTE engine, originally J-spec, converted to US-Spec OBDII.
• Custom turbo kit.
• Modified and built/upgraded A340e/AW4 hybrid automatic transmission.
• 4WD
• Stock Jeep drivetrain and suspension from transfer case back.
• I have a PLETHORA of collected parts and components that come with the Jeep. Everything from bushings, cruise control, body panels and bumpers to additional ECUs.
• All emissions systems and installation/troubleshooting documentation have been acquired.
I have a lot of intimate knowledge, obviously, and the new owner will have my personal contact info so that I may assist in any way I am able with upcoming endeavors. It is very important to me to see this project vehicle go to a good home with capable mind and hands.
